Website Tracking & Analytics Audit
Free SEO + tracking audit — see exactly what's broken in under 60 seconds
The audit of your homepage revealed some important insights about your site's tracking setup. Currently, there is no Google Tag Manager (GTM) container or Google Analytics 4 (GA4) setup detected, which means that critical tracking data is not being collected. Additionally, the Shopify-native analytics and Trekkie/Web Pixels API are not present, indicating that Shopify's built-in tracking features are not being utilized. This lack of infrastructure means that no tracking events fired on this page, and there is a risk of missing valuable visitor data. The audit also noted a warning regarding Google Consent Mode, which is not implemented, potentially affecting how user consent is managed for tracking. Given these findings, it would be beneficial to conduct further audits on other key pages like product pages, cart, checkout, and order-confirmation to ensure comprehensive tracking coverage. To address these issues and optimize your analytics setup, I recommend connecting your store to PayHelm AI for expert guidance and solutions.
No GTM container or gtag.js detected.
No GA4 measurement detected.
4 of 4 key funnel stages look healthy.
No data-quality issues found in tracked events.
Consent Mode not detected.
Tag load timing not measured.
No conflicting analytics IDs.
No Google Consent Mode was detected. Since March 2024 Google requires Consent Mode v2 for sites with EEA/UK traffic running Google Ads — without it, conversion and remarketing data is lost for users who haven't consented.
No tag load timing was captured (the container may not have loaded, or timing was unavailable).
No cross-domain (linker) tracking was detected. If your checkout or other steps live on a different domain, set up linker tracking so visits aren't split into separate sessions.
Google Ads Enhanced Conversions were not detected. They send hashed first-party data (email/phone) to recover conversions lost to cookie restrictions — worth enabling if you run Google Ads.
GA4 User-ID tracking was not detected. If you have logged-in users, setting a User-ID lets GA4 join their activity across devices and sessions.
We couldn't reach the checkout or order-confirmation page during this audit, so purchase tracking is unverified. Purchase is the single most important event to get right — test it with a real or test order and confirm the 'purchase' event fires once on the thank-you page.
No GTM container found.
No Google Tag Manager container was found on this page. If you rely on GTM for analytics and ads tags, nothing will fire.
Fix this issueNo GA4 measurement detected.
No Google Analytics 4 tag was detected on this page.
1 error(s) logged.
JavaScript errors were logged during page load. These don't necessarily affect tracking — only errors that directly interrupt pixel execution matter. See any vendor-specific errors below for actionable issues.
No consent API calls observed
No Google Consent Mode was detected. Since March 2024 Google requires Consent Mode v2 for sites with EEA/UK traffic running Google Ads — without it, conversion and remarketing data is lost for users who haven't consented.

Fix this issueFunnel events are page-specific: purchase only fires on order confirmation, add_to_cart requires a user click. Events shown as are not observable on this page type — audit each page separately for full coverage.
Discovery
Not observed on this page. Set up 'view_item_list' on your collection/category/search pages for funnel visibility.
Fix this gapNot observed during this load — 'select_item' requires user interaction on collection/category pages. Verify by manually testing the action on that page.
Consideration
Not observable on home pages — 'view_item' only fires on product detail pages. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Cart Activity
Not observable on home pages — 'add_to_cart' only fires on product pages and cart. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Not observable on home pages — 'remove_from_cart' only fires on cart page. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Not observable on home pages — 'view_cart' only fires on cart page. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Checkout Funnel
Not observable on home pages — 'begin_checkout' only fires on checkout entry page. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Not observable on home pages — 'add_shipping_info' only fires on checkout shipping step. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Not observable on home pages — 'add_payment_info' only fires on checkout payment step. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
Not observable on home pages — 'purchase' only fires on order confirmation / thank-you page. Audit that page type to verify coverage.
